Program of Study

Enamel: Image, Surface, Relief

Course No. ENA245 Credits: 3.0
Faculty Gretchen Goss

Fused glass to metal (enamel) is the focus of this course. Drawing and painting skills will transcend graphite, paper, oil and canvas to molten glass on metal. Transparent, opaque, liquid, and dry enamels will be introduced. Experimental to traditional processes in the medium will be covered. Photographic and digitally produced images are options for resists for the acid etching process. The linear aspects of cloisonné will be considered through the fusion of formed silver and copper wires into the enamel surface. Required of Enamel majors. Open to Electives. Offered fall and spring.
